Lymphocyte count

ARRB2 · rs34230287

What the study found

Who was studied 408,112 British individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0307 higher (95% confidence interval 0.026-0.036); p = 2 × 10−32.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 24% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17p13.2 — between genes, 0.1 kb from ARRB2.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Lymphocyte count. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Lymphocyte count. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Lymphocyte count. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs34230287

What is rs34230287?

rs34230287 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ARRB2 gene. Published research associates it with lymphocyte count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs34230287 mean I will get this?

No. Common variants like this one move a probability slightly and, on their own, rarely decide anything about one person. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and health decisions should be made with a clinician who can see your whole picture.

Where does the information about rs34230287 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888494. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
